Table of ContentsSection 10.07 Governing Law. This First Supplemental Indenture and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York. Section 10.08 Submission to Jurisdiction. The parties hereby submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any United States Federal or New York State court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York solely for the purpose of any legal action or proceeding brought to enforce their obligations hereunder or with respect to any Note. As long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding or the parties hereto have any obligation under this First Supplemental Indenture, the Company shall have an authorized agent upon whom process may be served in any such legal action or proceeding. Service of process upon such agent and written notice of such service mailed or delivered to the Company shall to the extent permitted by law be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company in any such legal action or proceeding and, if it fails to maintain such an agent, any such process or summons may be served by mailing a copy thereof by registered mail, or a form of mail substantially equivalent thereto, addressed to it at its address as provided for notices hereunder. The Company hereby appoints CT Corporation System at 111 Eighth Avenue, New York, New York 10011, as its agent for such purposes, and covenants and agrees that service of process in any legal action or proceeding may be made upon it at such office of such agent. The Company irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Company irrevocably agrees that, should any such action or proceeding be brought against it arising out of or in connection with this First Supplemental Indenture, no immunity (to the extent that it may now or hereafter exist, whether on the ground of sovereignty or otherwise) from such action or proceeding, from attachment (whether in aid of execution, before judgment or otherwise) of its property, assets or revenues, or from execution or judgment wherever brought or made, shall be claimed by it or on its behalf or with respect to its property, assets or revenues, any such immunity being hereby irrevocably waived by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by law. Section 10.09 Currency Indemnity. The U.S. dollar is the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by the Company under this First Supplemental Indenture. Any amount received or recovered in a currency other than U.S. dollars in respect of the Notes (whether as a result of, or the enforcement of, a judgment or order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up or dissolution of the Company or otherwise) by the Holder (or in respect of the Indenture by the Trustee or Conversion Agent) in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from the Company will constitute a discharge of the Company only to the extent of the U.S. dollar amount which the recipient is able to purchase with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not possible to make that purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is possible to do so). If that U.S. dollar amount is less than the U.S. dollar amount expressed to be due to the recipient under any Note, the Company will indemnify the recipient against any loss sustained by it as a result. In any event the Company will indemnify the recipient against the cost of making any such purchase.

Table of ContentsFor the purposes of this indemnity, it will be sufficient for the Holder (or Trustee or Conversion Agent) to certify that it would have suffered a loss had an actual purchase of U.S. dollars been made with the amount so received in that other currency on the date of receipt or recovery (or, if a purchase of U.S. dollars on such date had not been practicable, on the first date on which it would have been practicable). These indemnities constitute a separate and independent obligation from the other obligations of the Company, will give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any waiver granted by any holder and will continue in full force and effect despite any other judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any sum due under any Note or any other judgment or order. Section 10.10 No Redemption. The Notes are not redeemable at the option of the Company. Accordingly, Article IV of the Base Indenture shall not apply with respect to the Notes. Section 10.11 No Sinking Fund. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes. Accordingly, Article V of the Base Indenture shall not apply with respect to the Notes. Section 10.12 No Subordination. The Notes are senior obligations of the Company. Accordingly, Article XVI of the Base Indenture shall not apply with respect to the Notes. Section 10.13 No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. This First Supplemental Indenture may not be used to interpret another indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this First Supplemental Indenture. Section 10.14 Purchase of Notes in Open Market. The Company may, to the extent permitted by law, purchase any Notes on the open market or by tender offer at any price or by private agreement without prior notice to Holders. Any Notes purchased by the Company may, at its option, be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, but may not be reissued or resold by the Company. Any Notes surrendered for cancellation may not be reissued or resold and will be promptly cancelled. [SIGNATURE PAGE FOLLOWS]
